Transcription of Fortinet Secure SD-WAN Data Sheet
1 1 Fortinet Secure SD-WANA Unified WAN Edge, Powered by a Single OS, to Transform and Secure the WANAs the use of business-critical, cloud-based applications continues to increase, organizations with a distributed infrastructure of remote offices and an expanding remote workforce need to adapt. The most effective solution is to switch from static, performance-inhibited wide-area networks (WANs) to software-defined WAN ( SD-WAN ) architectures. Traditional WANs may utilize SLA-backed private multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) or leased line links to an organizations main data centers for all application and security needs.
2 But that comes at a premium price for connectivity. While a legacy hub-and-spoke architecture may provide centralized protection, it increases latency and slows down network performance to distributed cloud services for application access and compute. The result is operational complexity and limited visibility associated with multiple point products. This scenario adds significant management overhead and difficulties, especially when trying to troubleshoot and resolve s Security-driven Networking strategy tightly integrates an organization s network infrastructure and security architecture, enabling networks to transform at scale without compromising security.
3 This next-generation approach provides consistent security enforcement across flexible perimeters by combining a next-generation firewall with advanced SD-WAN networking capabilities. This scheme eliminates MPLS-required traffic backhaul and delivers improved user experience without ever compromising on security. This integrated approach enables simplified, single-console management for all networking and security needs, while extending SD-WAN into wired and wireless access points of branch offices. As a result, network security and controls can be more deeply integrated, enabling consistent security enforcement into branch LAN Features nWorld s only ASIC-accelerated SD-WAN n5000+ applications identified with real-time SSL inspection nSelf-healing capabilities for enhanced user experience nCloud on-ramp for efficient SaaS adoption nSimplified operations with NOC/SOC management and analytics nEnhanced granular analytics for end-to-end visibility and control DATA SHEETQ1 20222 DATA Sheet | Fortinet Secure SD-WANBUSINESS OUTCOMESI mproved User ExperienceAn application-driven approach provides broad application steering with accurate identification, advanced WAN remediation.
